1. Installing services using Docker Compose

After downloading the project, open the file path through the console and type the command

docker-compose up --scale worker = 4

2. Locust Settings

Locust is an open-source testing tool, which allows us to specify loading scenarios by a Python code.

Documentation : Locust

Locust access URL: localhost:8089
Note : locust_http.py : We write the url paths we want to see in Grafana to this file.
Note : If you use localhost in the 'Host Url' section and get an error, use your ip address

3. Prometheus Settings

Its main focus is to provide valid insight into system performance by providing a way for certain variables of that system to be monitored. We use Prometheus to show on graphana
Prometheus access URL: localhost:9090

Documentation : Prometheus

4. Grafana Settings

According to GrafanaLabs, Grafana is an open source visualization and analytics software. It allows you to query, visualize, alert on, and explore your metrics no matter where they are stored. Note : You can use Grafana in databases such as Mysql.

Grafana access URL: localhost:3000
